Accept and Even Seek Correction

 

Becoming More in Christ: The Parable of the Slope

By Elder Clark G. Gilbert

Of the Seventy

Elder Godoy stated emotionally: the Lord will “help you more than you can help yourself. [So] involve the Lord in this process.”

Harvard professor Clayton M. Christensen taught that the most successful people are the humblest because they are confident enough to be corrected by and learn from anyone.¹³ Elder D. Todd Christofferson counseled us to “willingly [find ways] to accept and even seek correction.”¹⁴ Even when things appear to be going well, we must seek out opportunities to improve through prayerful petition.
